Question#01
The Rogers Company is currently in this situation:
Sales = 14 million;
Variable Cost = 7 million
Fixed Cost = 3 million
tax rate, T = 35%;
value of debt, D = $2 million;
k d = 10%;
ks = 15%; and
Shares of stock outstanding, n = 600,000.
The firm’s market is stable, and it expects no growth, so all earnings are paid out as dividends. The debt consists of perpetual bonds.
What is the total market value of the firm’s stock, S, its price per share, P0, and the firm’s total market value, V?
What is the firm’s weighted average cost of capital?
The firm can increase its debt by $8 million, to a total of $10 million, using the new debt to buy back and retire some of its shares. Its interest rate on all debt will be 12 percent (it will have to call and refund the old debt), and its cost of equity will rise from 15 to 17 percent. EBIT will remain constant. Should the firm change its capital structure?
Calculate the Break-even point of the company.
Ch. 13. For questions 7, 8, and 9, use the following information:
Consider a firm whose debt has a market value of $35 million and whose stock has a market value of $55 million. The firm pays a 7 percent rate of interest on its new debt and has a beta of 1.23. The corporate tax rate is 21%. Assume that the security market line holds, that the risk premium on the market is 10.5 percent, and that the current Treasury bill is rate is 1 percent. What is the aftertax cost of debt?
